JRuby 1.1RC3 is the third and final release candidate of JRuby 1.1.
JRuby 1.1 represents a concerted focus on speed and refinement. Ruby code
can completely compile in an Ahead Of Time (AOT) or Just In Time (JIT) mode;
yielding a faster Ruby! It also uses less memory than our previous releases.

We need people to download JRuby 1.1RC3 and give us feedback. Only uncovered
severe issues (common library crashing, memory leak) will hold us from
promoting this as JRuby 1.1 final. Please try your applications out and report
all issues you encounter.

I just wanted to thank you guys for this latest release. It seems very stable and fast. It has come to the point where I am now deploying my rails apps (that are on a windows environment) exclusively using jruby.

Once again thank you all for the work you have put into this project, it is much appreciated.
